Why has Vinícius Júnior’s dancing caused so much drama?
As reported by Sport Bible, the Real Madrid forward has been criticised over his trademark celebration. The problems arose after the Spanish Agents Association president, Pedro Bravo, claimed Vinicius was disrespecting his opponents. He also compared his behaviour to that of a monkey. Bravo has since apologised for his choice of words, but the backlash over the comments continues. Vini Jr believed that the comment was xenophobic and racist, and many stars have backed the Brazilian forward.
What did Vinícius Júnior say about his dances?
The Madrid star has remained defiant and proud amidst the recent criticism.
"Weeks ago they began to criminalise my dances. Dances that are not mine. Those are dances to celebrate the cultural diversity of the world. Accept it, respect it. I'm not going to stop," he said.

No. While the Brazilian has received a lot of support from fellow players, not everyone is happy with his dance moves. Atletico Madrid’s captain Koke has warned Vini Jr against dancing at the Civitas Metropolitano. Atletico will play host to Real in the Madrid Derby, and Koke admitted that there could be trouble if Vini scored and danced at Atleti’s stadium.
